Men's Nike Pegasus

Men’s Nike Pegasus: A Time-Tested Running Shoe

Introduced to the world in 1983, the men’s Nike Pegasus was introduced as the shoe for every runner and racked up some serious accolades in the process. The most impressive of which: the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus still ranks as Nike’s all-time best selling running shoe. It also broke ground as the first Nike running shoe to implement a heel-only Air Unit, replacing its EVA predecessor to provide next-level cushioning that changed the world of running as we know it. With the evolution of Nike Air, and ultimately, the Nike Air Max family taking off over the next decade, the evolution of men’s Nike running shoes had reached a new chapter. Staple sneakers like the Nike Pegasus and Nike Tailwind were there to stay, though, and helped set the stage for Nike’s revolutionary Air technology to become what it is now.

The Nike Pegasus for men has undoubtedly seen serious change over time.  From its original Nylon upper to uppers built from materials like Hyperfuse, and Nike’s revolutionary Zoom Air cushioning technology for maximum energy return and all-day comfort, the Pegasus has been around for decades, but its staple status as a running shoe remains unchanged.  With countless colorways and new Nike Pegasus shoes for men always on the drop, it’s easy to find a time-tested running shoe right here at Foot Locker.

Worn by professional runners ranging from Amy Cragg to Evan Jager, the men’s Nike Pegasus has been on the feet of countless early morning runs and practices from the best to ever do it. Nike Air Pegasus shoes are a solid pick for just about any style of runner, but no running regime is complete without the proper gear to go with it. Since the beginning, Nike sweatsuits are a great option for running in fall, spring, and winter. With lightweight performance options from Nike, like the Nike Tech Fleece Collection, you get a completely rethought fleece material that moves with the motion of running coupled with the breathability you need on cool morning runs. Deconstruct the sweatsuit and take out some Nike Joggers with a Nike t-shirt if things heat up for the full look.
